Installation Notes and Tips
Verify rear left or rear right position before ordering, since fitment varies by model year and build date on the 2005 Forester. Confirm spline count, axle nut thread size, and overall length against the original part before installation. Always inspect the hub, seals, and surrounding suspension components during axle service to help prevent repeat failures.
